Red Hill

The home at 3 Tamar Street is comparable to the most luxurious of resorts.

If houses could be triple threats, this home would have the whole package – a floor plan impressive in scale and functionality, sublime facilities, fixtures and finishes, and an outdoor pool and entertaining space. All that’s missing are some palm trees and a nearby beach. 

The main open-plan living area is an extension of the outdoors, with the totally private outdoor entertaining and pool area spreading from this space. Glistening in the day and night is the in-ground pool with spa and separate children’s wading pool. It’s heated, so Canberra’s not-so-tropical climate is never an issue. 

When the weather is ripe, an outdoor, fully equipped stainless steel kitchen serves this area. At all other times, the designer kitchen does a perfectly ample job of taking care of the family. It’s elevated with equipment like a gas hob with a wok, warming drawer, coffee maker and reverse osmosis Billi hot water and filter. 

Five-star facilities are rounded out with a purpose-built theatre room, gym and even a stainless steel “fish” water feature.
